the problem is that they have no media literacy (well, barely any literacy at all) so the satirical nature of Warhammer goes far over their head and they instead unironically think the politics in the game are based.
they don't realize the nazi shit in these games is supposed to be grimdark authoritarian hellscape dystopias, not utopias....
but they can take grimdark authoritarian hellscapes as long as they're run by nazis.
They think they’d be space marines or inquisitors in that world. You know one of the one-in-a-trillion kinda folks.
Welcome to Flashlight Brigade Conscription! If you face the enemy, you will die. If you refuse to face the enemy, the nearest Commisar will execute you for treason. Same if you try to run. If you want to live, maybe hope for whichever enemy to adopt you as a pet, but that's less preferable than death in almost all cases.
